27: Enter the Demonic Division

"So, that means Liu Kong and Hu Yijiang are people from the Earth Fiend Hall."

Zhang Sanbao had introduced so much to him, focusing on the Earth Fiend Hall; the two were likely spies planted by the Earth Fiend Hall inside Great Chu.

"Correct. A few years ago, the Demon Suppression Division discovered the identities of those two."

"We discovered they were secretly planning something. To figure out their true purpose, we did not alert them."

"After aggregating multiple pieces of intelligence, we finally learned of their plot."

It was finally time for the crucial part, and Chu Jiang listened even more intently.

"It is rumored that within White Stone County, there is a mysterious place called the Ghost Moon Cave. It was the Immortal Cave of the Immortal Master Ghost Moon from hundreds of years ago, whose power was unfathomable."

"The wife of Immortal Master Ghost Moon fell into a permanent coma during a battle. In order to save her, Ghost Moon exhausted every possible method."

"He collected a vast amount of Heaven And Earth Treasure, stopping at nothing, even slaughtering demons and using the power of demons to experiment on himself, turning himself into a monster."

"His wife was actually saved by it, but upon seeing his appearance, she could not accept it and fell back into a coma. This time, Ghost Moon was never able to wake his wife again."

"He did not give up. He slaughtered a large number of demons and continued his experiments, wanting to change himself back to his original form and save his wife once more."

Chu Jiang spoke up: "This Immortal Master Ghost Moon is truly devoted. He spent his whole life for his wife, giving his all and not fearing to offend the Demon Clan. Did he succeed in the end?"

To save his wife, he experimented on himself, willing to turn into a monster.

Such deep affection is tragic, lamentable, and admirable.

Zhang Sanbao shook his head.

"No. He killed demons repeatedly, abducted demon younglings, and was wanted by the Demon Clan. He was hunted by a peerless Great Demon of the Demon Clan, and later, his whereabouts became unknown."

"Legend has it that before he died, his demon transplantation technique had another Breakthrough, creating a Peerless Grade Human Demon Bone, which was nearly immortal and indestructible."

"The goal of the Earth Fiend Hall is this Peerless Grade Human Demon Bone."

"For this, they have been laying plans for many years."

"This happened hundreds of years ago, so the truth can no longer be verified."

"However, with the Earth Fiend Hall planning so painstakingly, the Demon Suppression Division has no choice but to be on guard."

This Ghost Moon was truly ruthless—not just to himself, but to his enemies as well.

Moreover, he was exceptionally talented.

His demon transplantation technique had reached the peak of perfection; this skill could probably make him the Old Ancestor of the Earth Fiend Hall.

No wonder they are desperate to obtain this bone; they want to absorb the experience from it.

"Does the Demon Suppression Division know the location of the Ghost Moon Cave? Why not strike directly at the source to disrupt their plan and snatch back that Human Demon Bone?" Chu Jiang said with a smile.

The Demon Suppression Division certainly did not want the Earth Fiend Hall to obtain this Peerless Grade Human Demon Bone; otherwise, if they actually researched something, it would definitely not be good for the Demon Suppression Division.

"It is not that simple!"

"The Ghost Moon Cave only appears during the Yin year, Yin month, Yin day, and Yin hour, and on a full moon night. It also requires the Bloodline of Immortal Master Ghost Moon's descendants to activate it for it to succeed."

"Therefore, my mission is only to monitor the two of them and pay attention to their movements. Killing them would instead alert the Earth Fiend Hall."

Chu Jiang was silent for a moment, then said: "What do you need me to do now?"

Zhang Sanbao sharing such top-secret information with him was certainly not as simple as just making small talk.

"You just need to hand these two over to me. I still need to extract some secrets from their mouths to verify some speculations."

"Rest assured, when they no longer have any utility value..."

"I will hand them over to you, to be dealt with as you please."

Zhang Sanbao naturally knew that Chu Jiang had been betrayed by the higher-ups of the county office and almost killed by demons; given his personality, he would definitely not let the two go.

After this mission is over, it will also be the time of their deaths.

Chu Jiang nodded and agreed.

Since the other party had already spoken to this extent, he could not be too heartless.

In any case, these two were doomed to die.

It was just a little later, that is all.

Moreover, as an external department of the Demon Suppression Division, there was already a duty to assist the Demon Suppression Guard.

This matter involved a great deal; unearthing more information would also be more conducive to dealing with the crisis.

"By the way, I would like to invite you to join the Demon Suppression Division. Would you be willing?" Zhang Sanbao looked at Chu Jiang with a smile.

As for Chu Jiang, he had not thought highly of him before, and had even disliked him somewhat.

He had colluded with demons and deceived his superiors and subordinates.

He had even planned to arrest him on the spot after the mission ended.

Recently, observing his words and actions, they were vastly different from before.

Slaughtering demons and allowing the people to rest.

It was as if he had become a completely different person; he did not know what caused him to change either.

However, that was not important.

As long as he could slaughter demons and eliminate evil, he was a friend of the Demon Suppression Division.

If one were to dwell on the bad things done before, the Demon Suppression Division would have no one to use.

Guarding the entire Great Chu would be out of the question.

As a referrer, recruiting a powerhouse to join the Demon Suppression Division would also earn him quite a few contribution points.

"Of course I am willing!"

"Joining the Demon Suppression Division is my greatest wish."

Chu Jiang's face lit up with slight joy as he thought about how to join the Demon Suppression Division.

Joining the Demon Suppression Division meant becoming an official employee and shedding his status as an external member.

The benefits would skyrocket.

Most importantly, he would finally no longer need to scour the world looking for Cultivation Technique and martial arts.

The Demon Suppression Division could suppress demons across the world and monitor the sects of the Jianghu; its strength was unquestionable. Even if it had declined today, it was still a top-tier existence.

Joining the Demon Suppression Division also provided a powerful background.

No matter how one looked at it, there was no reason to refuse.

"Good. Although I am introducing you, some procedures still need to be followed."

"Before joining the Demon Suppression Division, everyone needs to complete a mission to become an official member."

"Everyone who joins the Demon Suppression Division must do so!"

Chu Jiang said with slight excitement: "That is only natural. Are there any missions I can choose from right now?"

The sooner he joined the Demon Suppression Division, the better.

Zhang Sanbao frowned and thought for a moment before saying: "There really are no other missions in White Stone County at the moment."

"However..." Zhang Sanbao's tone shifted, "Recently, demons have been becoming increasingly active in White Stone County. If you can resolve that, you can also be exempted from the entry mission."

"In any case, it is all about slaughtering demons. I will just report it to the higher-ups when the time comes."

Chu Jiang nodded slightly. Now that his strength had initially formed, it was time to clean up these demons.

Solving the demon threat in White Stone County.

It could also exempt him from the entry mission, which was a good choice.

"Oh, has the descendant of Immortal Master Ghost Moon been found? If the Ghost Moon Cave appears and there is no Bloodline of his to act as a guide, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?"

The Ghost Moon Cave surely contained more treasures than just the Peerless Grade Human Demon Bone. Besides stopping the Earth Fiend Hall, the Demon Suppression Division also wanted to get a piece of the pie.

"Isn't he working under you?" Zhang Sanbao revealed a strange smile.

"You mean Liu Guangwu!"

Chu Jiang was somewhat surprised. When Zhang Sanbao mentioned he was working under him, he thought about it, and only Liu Guangwu fit this identity.

He had only joined the Demon Hunting Division last month and had also been taken as a foster son by Liu Kong.

This made sense.

The Earth Fiend Hall had gathered all the conditions and was just waiting for the right moment.

"He has good talent and a pure Heart-Nature. If the time is ripe in the future, you can recommend him to the Demon Suppression Division; that would also be a fine deed." Zhang Sanbao said with a smile.

He appreciated people like Liu Guangwu. People with this kind of Heart-Nature were already rare, and the Demon Suppression Division needed this kind of fresh, young blood.

After some experience, he would become another sharp sword for slaughtering demons and eliminating evil in the future.
